The 49ers avenged their week 1 loss against the Seattle Seahawks in convincing fashion. They also showed that they can capitalize on their opponent’s mistakes.
Alex Smith’s audition for his next team went very well. He threw for 3 TD’s and 255 yards and finished with a passer rating off 130.9. His numbers were made mostly in the 1st half, when he threw for 195 yards and 3 TD.
The 49...

San Francisco cannot get a win against a team with a winning record, and if they have any hope of having success in the playoffs (assuming they make it to the playoffs), they have to find a way to beat a team with a winning record.
The 49ers were in the game during the first half. Then the 49ers offense sputtered and their defense forgot how to tackle.
The running game ran for only 97 yards t...

I want to know something…..when Troy Smith threw that 38 yard completion to Delanie Walker early in the 4th quarter, were his eyes open, or did he just throw it up there and hope for the best. Either way, that was the game changing play of the game.
After holding onto a meagre 3 point lead, the Denver Bronco’s scored a quick 10 points. But then the 49ers turned into a scoring machine, p...

At the two-minute warning, the 49ers had a 7 point lead against the winless Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have the ball at the 49ers 23-yard line. The first play after the two-minute warning is a touchdown pass from Matt Moore to David Gettis, the second of the game for both players. The 49ers get the ball back with one minute and 53 seconds left and all three time-outs, and what do the...

After 5 straight loses to begin the season, the feeling of “will they ever win one?” began to set in. The 49ers got the monkey off their backs against the Raiders in Week 6 and now have a real chance to start a winning streak when they travel to Carolina to face the 0-5 Panthers.
This weeks game is a must win for several reasons; first, the 49ers need to start building momentum; two, Caro...

On Sunday of week 6, the San Francisco 49ers took the first step in a long journey to reaching their season goal, a berth in the playoffs.
The type of game played on Sunday has been what they have been striving for since week 1. Frank Gore rushed for over 100 yards, Alex Smith did not throw an interception (but did throw two touchdown passes; one to take the lead and a second to solidify the ...

With a minute and 31 seconds left to go in the game, Nate Clements intercepts a Matt Ryan pass and turns it up field. After a 39 yard return, Roddy White of the Atlanta Falcons comes racing in from behind and strips the ball from Nate Clements and the Falcons recover the fumble at their own 7 with two timeouts remaining. Final result, Atlanta wins the game with a field goal as the clock tic...

I do not like it when fans begin to jump off the bandwagon at the sign of adversity, and I do not want this post to come across that way. The 49ers are in trouble. This was confirmed this morning when the 49ers announced the firing of offensive coordinator Jimmy Ray.
After a strong showing on Monday night against the Saints, the 49ers regressed back to their stagnant offensive ways from W...
